Marriage counseling is so hard!

My H and I have been in counseling together for the last 10 months. And in that time we have had 2 counselors. The first seemed to be making us worse, so we went to another one. The second has been much better and seems to "get" us individually and as a couple. But it has not been easy at all. It is such a struggle bringing up all of the old resentments, hurt, and neglect in our relationship.

Also I agree with the above quote. My experience has been showing up and making a commitment to talk about what is going on no matter how scared I am has helped...Even if my H doesn't want to go there.

Take care
